web and tui reports token usage differently. #3322
Description
Description
TUI uses the following logic to calculate token usage:
While web does this:
Difference is that the TUI takes the last message and adds up the tokens, web version aggregates all tokens across all messages.
That's why for example for this link: https://opencode.ai/s/IVO2CNuh
Web reports input tokens usage at 400k, while TUI only ~70K
As far as I can tell the TUI version is the actually correct one. If this is actually a bug I'm happy to do a PR to align the web tokens report to the TUI.
OpenCode version
0.15.10
Steps to reproduce
- Create a session with a share link
- Check token usage in TUI
- Check token usage at the end of share page

I'll take a swing at this.

The issue is less of a bug, and more bad UX. both of the numbers reflected a meaningful reality, the context number is "how many tokens are currently part of the agents context window" and the numbers on the website were "how many tokens did we have to send to, and receive from, the API, to get to the current state"
And you send the full context each time you make a request, and you get back some amount of tokens that then become a part of the context.
